Besides the shifter, control+shift rods, and the shifter bushing, what other parts do I need for the shifter assembly (in the center console)? The 5spd swap thread in AM is vague about the "hole bracket"s and "hole boot"s and such, and I'm going to a junkyard tomorrow and need to know which parts to pull out of that area.

 

Basically, just grab everything that the 5MT car has and you don't.

You'll need parts 10 and 11, they're usually stuck together anyway.

Might as well take all of the hardware (nuts/bolts) for it as well. Note that you'll need to get underneath the car to remove the whole shifter assembly.

Personally, every time I'm at the yard I grab as much hardware as I can, they tend to come in handy (mostly the 10mm head nuts/bolts).



There's a clutch pedal bracket spacer up against the firewall, should be able to just pry it off. This will keep you from having to make something with nuts/washers/etc.

Also, the factory 5MT cars don't have the hole in the firewall for the auto shift cable; if you cut and pull the cable out of the stock firewall plate, you can seal it up with RTV or similar to keep the hole sealed.
